Happy Jazz-mas...

We enter the latin quarter with a concert led by guitarist Steve Franks with Mrs Peel and house band Tetraphonic - wash back election tears, foment the new revolution in jazz. Steve has a special collection of xmas arrangements to bewitch us with. Steve plays the most beautiful, passionate, yearning, and precise, Spanish jazz you will hear.

All jam musicians are welcome to participate throughout the energeti-xploration.

Steve is a virtuoso guitarist who has played the instrument for 50 years.  His early career saw him performing on the electric guitar in showbands and backing cabaret artists and chart acts of the day.  He studied jazz guitar with Bristol maestro Frank Evans and later studied classical technique.  Steve now plays the Spanish guitar exclusively and as a soloist performs classical, jazz and his own arrangements of popular tunes, ranging from Bach to Bacharach.

Steve's tuneful compositions have elements of a wide range of influences, from modern jazz to Latin, flamenco and funk.
